Yeah I was thinking that as well but I can't see Boland coming up again so I might just learn Plath, Rich and Heaney.

Still, bit risky, be sickening to open up the paper and see 4 poets you didn't have a clue of.

I hate that I'm on here instead of studying..........

a friend told me that the dictatorship and democracy q "to what extent did Hitler's foreign policy lead to the outbreak of ww2" has never come up and it seems like a pretty obvious one. Its a really good essay to do but somethings aren't in the book that you need to know like the Hossbach Memorandum where Hitler discussed war plans and stuff.

Also Nazi anti-semitism hasnt come up?? seems pretty standard with kristallnacht and Nuremberg rallies and stuff. Yopu could also throw in that Mussolini only became racist after the rome-berlin axis and the pact of steel, then he brought in the charter of race in 1933.

Land reform and all the land acts haven't come up since 2008 and once you do it its a good essay to have and fairly easy to remember. That with the 1885-86 elections essay should cover a good chunk of Parnell also!!

Any tips for Sovereignty and Partition would be good if anyone has them!!!

Eucharistic Congress, strengths and weaknesses of Michael Collins, Rise of Sinn Féin/Fall of Home Rule, What lead to the Partition of Ireland in 1920s? and maybe one on Treaty Negotiations! That's what I'm studying anyways!

Irish - Institute are saying coras oideachas , bas ar na boithre and drink/drugs are favorites.

English - V&V and Lit Gen. I think. Poets will be Heaney, Rich, Larkin and Plath.

Physics - Capacitance and/or resistivity for electricity. Doppler Effect. Planetary motion. Photoelectric effect with Einstein explanation. Boyles law has to come up in experiments!

Right there ye go that's the best I've got so far

Coras oideachas came up two years ago.. My grinds teacher gets it right every year. I think racism, technology because steve jobs died or maybe social problems in general

What does your grinds teacher say will come up in Irish?
So far I think I'll do the enviroment, drugs in sport, education/health system and survival of Irish language.

[Canard]

I've just done an essay on the language but like, how much has it come up? Seems it only came up once :/ And its so not useful for any other title at all :|

We've done language/sport/president/poverty. My teacher's done none of the exams/preparation she kept talking about, really starting to get a bit nervous but ah well

On a related note, what are you guys studying for an triail? we've done 0 on minor characters at all, so...yeah :L

[dalydolly]

It depends on the college you're going to - check the admissions information in the prospectus. Colleges have general entry requirements as well as those for your actual course, and you have to satisfy the general ones first. Certain colleges will accept foundation maths, others won't, but it should be in the prospectus, or if you can't find it, ring their admissions office and check.

He said all that i just said.. I have a feeling that men will come up for An Triail and Colscaradh or Geibheann.. Gnathrud or Oisin...saying that im not totally sure...should no more next week.. thats the stuff we did most work on

[David1994]

The only real essays we have prepared for Irish are basically the problems in Ireland-Recession,Homelessness,Racism,Drugs and Travellers(Tied in with racism really) He seems pretty confident if we are prepared for these topics we will be grand :/

[deathbythelc]

Reading all of your Irish essay topic predictions makes me even more glad that I moved down to OL.

yeah think ur on the ball with them topic.. The only thing about getting an essay on problems is you'll have to twist it and prob make mistakes..Like hope on the horizon came up last year so it would of been hard enough to write a good essay.. Racism came up in the mocks too so it may appear.. u could learn problems as a backup

[Sinenichuig]

Has anybody got any predictions for geography? Help needed badly.. :/
